Guys - doesn't the recent video fall outside of the expected sequence of events that have been predicted here? (The UBL video was expected AFTER the next attack, wasn't it?)
I'm also curious on how much of the video wasn't shown by Al Jazeera. I've heard they showed about 1 minute of it, and that the whole tape was either 5 or 18 minutes.
Also - did you guys notice the demeanor difference in GWB and Kerry today in their responses? Kerry seemed full of bravado and confidence, while Dubya had what - a two sentence comment on how we "won't be intimidated by enemies of America". I got the impression George was either: a) not prepared for a comment at that time but forced into one by circumstances, or b) very concerned about what was on the other 4/17 minutes and didn't want to make an overly strong statement if he had knowledge of what might be coming at us from AQ in the next week or two.
B.
That was not a solid sequence. The greatest expectation was that it would occure before. There was lesser speculation that it could occure after.

IMHO, no matter what happens, Dubja will do the right thing.
Back when TM first began almost a year ago, wasn't long after that we saw word of 'live' video being released 'as' the attacks would be aired on CNN etc
